Fruit Anthocyanins

How many years has it been since you started hearing about Flavanoids ? Do you know what they are and how they work ? They are amazing nutrients in the natural color of fruit especially found in the skin. There are 2 formulas I love to use with clients, one is liquid, while the other is a powder. Both are cutting edge in terms of providing quality that is above and beyond many other similar fruit blends. I use a tsp of BIO FRUIT ($ 34 retail, $25 from my pharmacy) in my morning protein shake. After the beloved ND Bill Mitchell of Seattle passed away, his family continues to make a liquid that was one of his favorite therapies for thousands of his patients. The research article below is exciting to scan even for lay people to appreciate the many uses of these concentrated anti-oxidants. His liquid is only sold thru doctors offices.

Several decades ago, the American Cancer Assoc said 90 % of cancer can be prevented by eating 7 cups a day of fruits and vegetable.

Wow ! Who can do that ? With a careful eye for the best of organic green drinks (Best of Greens) and fruit anthocyanins, you can support your body to absorp that extra insurance boost for so many health reasons. Just take a brief look at the information below.

Detailed Summary of Scientific Research


Hard to choose I know ....take a look below at the BioFruit Formula. Either the liquid above or the powder BioFruit can be added to spring or well water or some sparkling water to make a delicious soda kids will love. What a great way to ingest extra nutrients during the winter when most of us eat less fresh fruit.


Biofruit

The incredible variety of powerful phyto-nutrients available in fruits and berries is as impressive as the number of fruits and berries themselves. However, the fruits most people regularly eat are not among the most nutritious, and unfortunately, some people do not eat any fruits and berries at all. Poor selection and availability are only some of the problems people face when they try to provide their bodies with meaningful volumes of fruit phyto-nutrients daily. Other problems include high sugar levels in fruits that may affect diabetics or hypoglycemics, pesticide residues that may be very harmful to our health and a simple lack of "tree ripened qualities such as enzymes and minerals that are necessary for complete and proper digestion.

Bio Fruit contains one of the most impressive varieties of guaranteed potency, synergistically balanced, low glucose, pesticide free, phyto-nutrient packed fruits in one place since the Garden of Eden.

Each serving of Bio Fruit contains therapeutic quantities of such diverse fruits and berries that it would be almost impossible to obtain fresh daily supplies. Bio Fruit is convenient, pleasant tasting and reasonably priced. If a consumer were to try to buy all of the supplements that it would take to match the potency in just one jar of BIO FRUIT they could easily spend sixty to one hundred dollars and become a slave to supplements!
